I've just made a decision. Me taking a full comprehensive ochem test to satisfy a GENERAL chem requirement is total BS. I don't want to reteach myself this crap (IUPAC naming, functional groups, stereochemistry, etc...) b/c it's useless and has absolutely NO use for medicine. It's just another damn hoop that I'm wasting my time, energy, and money on. Hell, I'm on a wait list = NOT accepted. I'm calling them tomorrow and forfeiting my spot. Let someone else jump through the flaming hoops.

Can I just say don't give up when you're this close? You could be there tomorrow for all you know. Isn't this further than you've made it before? I know it sucks and chemistry is the devil, but I would beat myself up if it took me from my life's dream

 

[twelvetigers]

You just need to do well enough to pass and make it through the hurdle. I agree it's dumb, and I know the waitlist is no guarantee, but Anna was really optimistic about movement on the list. Give it some serious, serious thought before letting go. No regrets.

 

[PetPony]

There is so much stuff to learn in vet school anyways, this should just be like a practice! You'll be learning for the rest of your life. this shouldn't stop you if you really have a chance at getting a seat!

Thanks, dyachei. I've been trying to tell myself the same thing for a few weeks now. It's just that I'm so bad at o-chem theory and regardless of what I do I feel like I'm going to fail. I took it for the first time in 1993 and got a C. Then I retook the series last school year - 10 credits worth - because 'they' all told me to. And when I got done, (and I did finish even though I got rejected from every single program) I ran from it... Sold my books, gave away every study item I had, etc b/c I was DONE with it. Worked my ass off and ruined my health so that I could just get rejected again b/c I got Bs. 10 credits of Bs that wrecked my last 45 credits 3.9.

And now here it is again standing in my way. The only class I have ever hated with every bit of my being standing in my way once again. It's like a demon that keeps coming back to remind me that I'm just not good enough...

Pass is an 80. That's not simply a pass - it's a hurdle that I really don't think I can overcome.

Edit: Should mention that 52 of those points apparently come from ESSAY questions. Yeah, real doable w/o a doctorate in theoretical ochem...

Or let it go and take it over the summer somewhere else where it is not as difficult

Essay = synthesis/mechanism questions?

C'mon LMMS, we all believe in you. Don't sabotage yourself. Normally you've got a lot of fight in you, I'm sure you can muster a little for tomorrow. 🙂 I'll cross my fingers for you, but I doubt you need the help.

Hey! Hey now! I thought us Jersey girls were going to stick together?! 😛

Do you absolutely need this, for the requirement, or are you taking it to improve your grade? Ochem kicked my butt on multiple occasions, and I still hate it because it's effing pointless, but I managed to improve my grade up to a B (from a C-) and screw them, I'm proud of that B.

Don't give up on me!

 

[psilovethomas]

Ran into one of my very good friends this morning. I haven't seen her since St. Patrick's Day because I've been so busy. Devastated to hear she is doing poorly and having serious issues. It's very upsetting because I care about her so much but also see a lot of my past problems manifesting in her. Ugh, and I my eukaryotic cell exam is at 3. I need to pass this, or I'm doomed.🙁

Thanks, everyone. The support I get from this group never fails to amaze me. Seriously, for a bunch of people I don't know personally, you're the best cheering squad I've ever had. I realize that I may sound defeatest in my words, but I've been going through a really rough time recently (aside from all the school stress); and yesterday I finally couldn't take it any longer and just cracked. Really, if I had the the feeling that things would be OK I wouldn't be so terrified; but to have so much riding on this, it's making me ill.

I would love to be able to just nix the whole thing and take a gen chem II course somewhere over the summer; but it's not allowable by the university. I must have a score to the school by the time the spring semester is completed (provided I'm even accepted). I admit that I tried to reason with them showing them that the university I work for has three chem classes and the first one (the one I took) is a complete gen chem I and II while the second is the organic portion (chem III is biochem for those who may be interested). However, they told me last week that, regardless of rigor, I still needed to take the examination to replace my old general chem II. I really do understand that rules are rules; and every single school is allowed to make the rules as they see fit. But thinking that I had finally done enough to get through the wall of fire only to be greeted with a new wall of thick black smoke is something I really never expected. I know that I should be very happy that they didn't reject me for an 'old' class, but rather have afforded me the opportunity to make it so that I'm within the 'guidelines'. I just feel like this test can take it all away from me anyway...

I have no idea of the topics that will be covered on the examination. I was only told the format and that I should 'review' the textbook. I feel like I'm in a black hole and just keep spinning. No matter what I do, it's simply never enough.

What an awful situation 🙁 I'm sorry you have to go through all of this, especially after all you have done to get this far.

Did you find out anythign for UGA PP?!

Not yet. 🙁 I don't know if it will be e-mail or snail mail. I guilted my bf into checking at home yesterday while he was working, but there wasn't anything there. Nothing at my dorm either.

Maybe today..

[LMMS]

Thanks again, everyone. I'm actually pretty much stuck. The test is on Friday and the money has already been paid. So if I don't take it I'm out $100+. But, given the circumstances, I could be out so much more. We shall see.

Just do your best and maybe it'll be good enough!

And thank you! 🙂

No e-mail yet and no mail at home. Will be checking my dorm mailbox in an hour. I'm making myself wait, because I don't know when exactly the mail is coming, but it's usually there by 4.

 

[PetPony]

Nothing here either. Maybe tomorrow. 🙁

[Virginger]

LMMS, You Can Do Do This!! 😀😳🙂😉

Have you youtubed the sections you have a hard time with? Many schools like MIT and UC Berkeley will post their lectures... and many other people post study aides like on khan and freelanceteacher.

I have no doubt that you can do this, dont let it stop you I have been anxiously waiting to see you move off of that waitlist!

 

[Lissarae06]

First, LMMS, you've got this!

Second, my throat effing hurts. It started hurting last night and it has just gotten worse. It feels like there is a lump in my throat that makes it hard to swallow and it hurts soooooo bad. I am hoping it's just allergy related. I don't have any other symptoms. I do NOT have time to get sick right now.

 

[Dsmoody23]

If I had to cram for Ochem in a few days, I think I'd use this:

http://www.khanacademy.org/#organic-chemistry

Each video is maybe 10-12 minutes, so you could theoretically do it in a few days. It's not as in-depth as you probably need, but it's better than paging through a book, hoping you can soak up everything.

At least you'll have seen most of the core concepts again before you take the test.

Either way, good luck. You'll probably do better than you think you will.

I have really bad spring seasonal allergies, which are normally runny nose/sneezing/watery eyes that are typically somewhat controlled with singulair/zyrtec. Three years ago, the main thing I had in the spring was a really bad swollen throat (also had some sneezing/sniffly-ness, but no where close to as bad as normal)--I had basically only applesauce for three meals a day for about a week. Was no fun at all.
I hope yours is something similar and doesn't get worse! I totally get the no time to get sick feeling.

Feel better soon!

Again, thanks to everyone for your kind thoughts and cheerleading.

Now, Virginger (waiting patiently for OR to let you in!!!) and DSM... I always forget about the damn web!! As someone who got a graduate degree when the web was in its infancy (yes, I'm THAT old) it never comes to mind. I've been mindlessly paging through that damn text for three weeks now and nothing is going to help like the pictures on the web. And those nice folks from Khan? How could I have forgotten them?!?! They're owed part of my A in calculus. They totally rock! As does everyone here on SDN for talking me back in off the ledge.

Thank you to ALL! 😍

And Lissa, I will that you're feeling better VERY soon!!!!!

 

[Trematode]

Urgh.
So, I want to take a year off and work. I have decided that I want to get a job in the city that I am currently in. My friends are here. The new boyfriend is close by. Also, this city is really starting to grow on me.

I am starting to feel defeated. I was told that if I wanted to enter the work force that it would not be difficult to find a job related to my field of study. I have a B.Sc. in Biology, wrote a thesis and have experience doing molecular biology techniques.

I am under-qualified for all of the biology-related jobs I have seen so far. It did not stop me from applying for some of them. But it really bothers me that I have been brainwashed, since high school, that a bachelors degree = a decent paying job in my field. My thesis supervisor told me that I should have no problem finding a job. WELL I AM. He has been trying to discourage me from applying to restaurants/retail because I am "above" that.

It would also be great to get a job in the veterinary field. I saw a posting for technician at a clinic not too far away. I called to inquire about the job. The job posting was for a "technician". I wanted to see if they were looking for a registered vet tech. If they were, I would not have wasted my time applying. They told me to email the vet who was responsible for hiring. I did and received no response. I dropped off a resume last week and no response yet.

The cost of living here is quite high. If I settle for a minimum wage job, I cannot afford to live by myself.

I currently live with my ex-boyfriend in a one bedroom apartment. I need to leave by the end of the month. My sanity depends on it. If I do not find a place to live and a well-paying job, my parents have already started pressuring me to come home for a month while I figure out what I am going to do. They have already pressured me to sell all of my furniture to my roommate so I do not have to pay to move it/store it. NO WAY. I have been out on my own now for 5 years. I refuse to go back to my hometown and live with my parents for any length of time. Plus, the only job I would be able to get down there is a call center job.

I am beginning to get incredibly stressed out. I check for jobs... every day... hoping for something. I scour the university websites for openings in labs every day. Nothing. Nada. Zilch.

One of my friends is on my back for not moving out sooner and not agreeing to live with strange men. I told her I was thinking of applying to a coffee shop that is a little bit outside of the city. She told me I was barbaric for considering a job "out there". Um, rent is a little cheaper. There are many stores and restaurants in the area. The city is a short bus ride away. I do not see her logic.

My ex-boyfriend does not give me any privacy at all. He never leaves the house. He has no friends, no job, is stingy and enjoys his computer games too much to give me even an hour of alone-time in the apartment on a weekly basis. When new boyfriend had to stay the night the other night, we could not hang out in the living room. We were confined to the bedroom... and not able to do anything that would make my ex uncomfortable. SO I NEED TO LEAVE.

Also, my best friend will be looking for a roommate in...... August. She currently lives with a couple who fight a LOT. They refuse to leave before their lease is up. She is hesitant about subletting. I cannot wait until August. Once her roommates leave, she will be screwed if she cannot find someone to share an apartment with. I do not understand why she cannot sublet her room and share a place with me. She would make an awesome roommate.

I am approximately $60 000 in debt. My line of credit is almost maxed out. My parents are co-signers on the line of credit and I do not think they are willing to let me increase it so that I can get established in a new place.

Ohhhh, this is interesting to. Whenever I see an ad for a "technician" position that looks like I might be qualified for, most of the time they are looking for someone with a background in computer science to do data processing/programming/whatever. My lazy roommate is a computer science major. My lazy roommate apparently "can't find a job". I wish my lazy roommate would apply to these stupid jobs so that I can have some privacy in the apartment. Instead, he has a wonderful mother who pays his rent and lets him use his car while he sits on his butt and play video games.

TL : DR - If I do not find a job or a place to live by the end of this month, I will go insane. If not from my roommate, from having to live with my folks at the age of 23 in a town that I absolutely hate that is at least an hour away from all of my friends.

 

[Emiloo4]

I have told you before how much I admire your strength and drive! You will get through this too! You're too determined not to!

My rant:
My F*CKING STUPID, ANNOYING roommate drives me CRAZY!!!! We adopted a new dog recently and I got him at 9 months old so he's been a little more difficult to train than a puppy. Either way, I have worked really hard and he has all the basics down. And then my roommate has to ruin it!
Every mother f*cking time he sees my dog, he goes...
"Sit sit sit sit sit sit sit sit" all within 4 seconds! WHY DUDE?!?!?! TELL HIM TO SIT ONCE!!!!!! WHY ARE YOU RUINING MY TRAINING?!!?!?!

UGH IT DRIVES ME F*CKING NUTS!!!!! I have asked him SO MANY TIMES to please stop! That he will sit if you tell him once! He literally starts to sit the first "sit" he says, and between him starting his sit, and him actually putting his ass on the ground, the dumb f*ck adds 7 more sits!

S-T-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-P!!!

 

[DVMDream]

My rant; annoying clients that bitch you out for no reason (All of these happened within a 10 minute time frame, while I was taking care of a parvo patient, while we had 4 clients waiting to get into exam rooms to be seen by a doctor and while my stomach was eating itself from starvation because I had not been to lunch yet).

1. I pick up the phone that is on hold. The lady starts in talking and I can't understand a damn word she is saying. She tells me I have a few questions for you. Ok.... Do you know what a TRA...what?? I'm sorry did you ask what a TRA is. NO!! Do you know what TMF is??? WTF!!!?? I'm sorry I really am not sure what you are asking for do you mind giving me some of your information so I can look at your pet's history to see if I can understand you better. NO! You already took care of my puppies these are just general questions, just answer them!! Well, I am sorry but I can't really understand what you are saying (lady sounded like she had shoved marshmallows in her mouth and was talking) could you please hang up and call back to see if we can get a better connection. NO!!! The connection is fine, I can hear you just fine, just answer my questions. I am sorry but I am not sure what you are asking. Ok FINE. Do you know what this pill is for puppies/kittens/dogs and cats. I'm sorry did you ask about a pill? NOOO!! Ok, I really can not understand you; I think it would benefit you to try calling back to see if the connection will be better. NO!! Just let me speak to a doctor, that is D-O-C-T...

Yes, I finally hung up on this lady.

2. I go to check in a client that is here for a bordetella vaccine. I get her in the exam room and she instantly starts bitching about, "I don't need an exam, just the vaccine, I was JUST here and I don't need an exam." "He is being boarded, he needs a bordetella vaccine, NO EXAM." "I was told I could just get the vaccine today." (She was last in 2 months prior and there was no notes saying that she could just get a vaccine without an exam).

3. Answer the phone. Lady asks, "How much is your office visit?" I start to reply, "Our office visit is...." "Excuse ME! I am NOT finished... How much is your office visit for a cat?" Me... "Our office visit is $49" Lady: "That includes the exam, RIGHT!" Me... "Yes the office visit is an exam with the doctor. Any treatments or diagnostics that need to be done with your pet will be placed on a treatment plan and all additional costs will be gone over with you." Lady "BYE!"

ME: I AM NOT ANSWERING THE PHONE, AGAIN!!! Going to lunch!

 

[NStarz]

So I'm basically the computer person for my mom's preschool. She took over it a couple of years ago and we prettied up all of the brochures and applications and stuff. I made a school calendar on Print Shop and it was pretty freaking awesome. For whatever reason, it didn't get saved, and I know I used the Calendar Creator in PS but I can't figure out how I made this stupid calendar. I've tried almost a dozen different ways to make it, and it's just not working. GAH! Anyone have any ideas on a different program to use or a way to make something like this masterpiece I made last year??

I don't know why, but my boyfriend telling me he can't come this weekend made me really upset. Maybe I'm just stressed a bit right now. My quiz didn't go so well even though I really studied for it. I'm still waiting for that letter from the vet school. And I don't know. I'm just really emotional lately. We made plans for the whole weekend and it all just fell through. I know other people don't get to see their SO for a long time, but I was really excited for this weekend. I needed this weekend.

This is a rant turned semi-rave (in the loosest of manners) but I had to post it here in order to give credit where credit is due...

Virginer and DSM (and Nayanko too given that she was just 'beaten' by DSM to the post): I cannot thank you guys enough for the recommendation of the Khan Academy! I've spent some quality time with it since yesterday (would have spent more if my phone had cooperated) and it's ALL starting to come back. I still HATE ochem with a passion; but the lectures on the Khan site are helping me to realize that I may have just enough left in my brain to beat the demon (albeit by the skin of my teeth) come Friday.

I really owe you guys one. Thank you SOOOOOOO much for giving me a little hope!! And to the rest of you, I cannot say enough to thank you for your kind words of support. Sometimes a good positive kick is all one needs to get back up, brush themselves off and start all over again.

Once again, I feel so very very lucky to have found SDN. You guys are the BEST!!

Request granted complete with poke!

Here's your motivation... I'm still awake on the east coast studying for the aforementioned demon test of my lifetime. I'm exhausted, can barely see straight any longer, and have to get up at 6am for work. If I can do this, you can do THAT!! Go forth!!

 

[Abnerrs]

Ha! Thanks guys! I feel like I'm moving at a snail's pace but it's slowly getting there. It's my own fault anyway....

And LMMS you are so gonna rock that test!!! I have every faith in you!!!!

What a crappy day at work.

 

[Abnerrs]

Wooo!@ 4:30am and that paper is done!! (I did accidentally fall asleep for about 1.5 hours 😳) And today is my later start day so I have have time to sleep for 3 hours!!! 😀

(I was gonna post this on the rave but I thought it would lack continuity! <-- I pull out all my smart words for papers lol)

Ugh I have been working as a full time research associate in this lab since last May. Today we had an animal saftey inspection which my supervisors forgot to show up for. They asked me if I work with the animals and since I only work under my supervisors I said no. The director of the building who has met me several times and approved my hire said "Oh she is just a student". He also totally ignored me when I tried to tell him no. Silly rant I know, but it really bothers me when people don't give a rats a** who I am.

Aww I'm sorry little kids losing their pets is heartwrenching.🙁
